Midnight Special

In the barrio you gotta learn how to survive
Cause you never know when it’s your turn to take a dive

So you go through each day
With your eyes in the back of your head
You never know if you’ll be alive or be dead

That is why always have it
You carry a midnight special
Never leave home without it
Always better with a midnight special
In the dark on the street
Never know who you’re gonna meet
No problem you got a midnight special
